Eustace Mamba Solo Exhibition "Lavender" at Paradigm Gallery

Paradigm Gallery + Studio is pleased to present Lavender, a solo exhibition of new vibrant oil paintings, sewn collages, and assemblage sculpture by Eustace Mamba. In his first solo exhibition with Paradigm, Mamba will be unveiling a collection that showcases his observations of urban life and reflections on the 250th anniversary of the United States filtered through vivid wonder. In recent years, Mamba has established a studio practice of sewing canvas as a metaphor for making connections between disparate objects to create new forms and narratives. This collection marks a new period for the artist as he improves on his academic training by using more expressive brushstrokes and vibrant pigments in skin and landscape, inserting a magical element into his everyday surroundings. While some of his paintings touch on the tensions surrounding Contemporary American life, Mamba hopes to inspire a pedagogical shift where the focus is shifted to the everyday American's resilience and perpetual hope.

Eustace Mamba: "Lavender" will be on view at Paradigm Gallery + Studio from July 3 through August 2, 2026, with a public opening reception on Friday, July 3rd, during Old City’s First Fridays.
